System Technician-Demanded Tests: Descriptions
and Error Codes
Always investigate tests in the order p resented in the table below whe n
inspecting errors in the system. By clearing error cod es associated with the
NPE
Crosstalk Test,
for example, you may also clear errors gene rated from other tests
in the testing sequenc e.
NPE Crosstalk Test (#6)
One or more NPEs reside on each circuit pac k with a TDM Bus interface. The
NPE controls port connectivity and gain, and provid es conferencing func tions on
a per-port basi s The N PE Crosstalk Test verifies that this port’s NPE channel talks
on the selected time slot and never crosses over to time slots reserved for other
connections. If the NPE is not working correc tly, one-way and noisy connections
may be observed. This test is usuall y only part of a port’s Long Test Sequence
and takes about 20 to 30 sec onds to complete.

Result Description/ Recommendation
ABORT Could not allocate system resources to run this test or an internal system
error (software) occurred.
1. Retry the command at 1-minute intervals a maximum of 5 times.
1000 ABORT System resources required to run this test are not available. The port may be
in use on a valid call. Use status station or status trunk command to
determine when the port is available for testing.
1. Retry the command at 1-minute intervals a maximum of 5 times.
1001 ABORT Could not allocate the necessary system resources to run this test.
1. Retry the command at 1-minute intervals a maximum of 5 times.
